Chapter 221 Taylor Swofford Version Starlight

Smallwell.

Padraic Farm.

A day had passed since Peter returned to the farm, and half a day had passed since Loki was beaten.

In the living room, Peter opened the letter on the table.

Over the course of a few days, a lot of letters piled up in the mailbox.

"dad."

As he was opening the letter, Star-Lord walked up to him and asked, "Can I ask you a question?"

"Of course, what do you want to ask?"

"Is Bruce really Batman?"

"Yes, but you must keep this secret."

Peter put the letter down and said to Star-Lord in a serious tone: "Otherwise - if Batman's enemies find out, he will be in big trouble. He needs to keep his identity secret."

"But isn't Bruce an ordinary man?"

“Ordinary people can also become heroes and fight crime.”

“But it’s going to be difficult.”

Star-Lord sat in the chair next to Peter, "Just like now his back was broken by Bane and he almost became a disabled person, Dad, is it worth it for him?"

Star-Lord was deeply touched by this trip to Gotham, especially Bruce's behavior, which touched him deeply.

“Some things cannot be measured by value or worthlessness.”

Peter turned to Star-Lord and said, "Didn't you say that you liked Romero in Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises? Romero is a tough guy who never admits defeat. Kahn knocked him down again and again out of jealousy, but he still refused to admit defeat and stood up and fought back again and again, which eventually broke down Kahn's psychological defenses. He also has superb professional skills and fearless courage. Despite his injuries, he completed a thrilling bullfight with extremely high professional skills."

“You read Hemingway, too, Dad?”

Star-Lord looked at him in surprise.

"One thing is that Bruce is a tough guy like Romero, so even though he knows there is danger and he might even be killed by the bull, he still rushes forward."

Star-Lord thought for a moment and said to Peter, "But Hemingway said that tough guys are also fragile. They can give people strength, but they can also be the source of destruction."

"But I still like tough guys."

Star-Lord lowered his voice and said to Peter: "Because I am a tough guy too."

Peter: "?"

"Are you talking like Batman again?"

"No, no, Dad, my voice is like this. It's just that sometimes it sounds deep and sometimes it's not. Bruce and I are the same type of people. We are both tough guys."

Peter listened to Star-Lord's nonsense and looked at him with a frown.

Does this kid want to transform himself into a superhero and become a vigilante?

"What are your career plans, Star-Lord?"

Peter asked him doubtfully, "About your future life plan."

"Uh"

Star-Lord didn't expect Peter to suddenly ask him this question.

After a pause, he said to Peter: "I haven't thought about it carefully, but I will probably become a superstar."

"Superstar?"

"Yes, a singer who is more popular than Taylor Swift."

Star-Lord said confidently: "Do you know why?"

"Because of what?"

"Because my stage is the entire galaxy, Dad."

After listening to Star-Lord's ambitious speech, Peter fell silent.

If you could bring your awkward dancing to the entire universe, it would probably kill a lot of aliens, and you would indeed become a famous singer in the universe.

“But there is one thing that is very important.”

Peter said to him: "The most important thing is that you have to control your body shape. Superstars must control their body shape."

When Star-Lord heard that he was asked to control his body shape, his expression instantly became depressed.

“That’s hard, but I’ll try.”

Star-Lord said without any confidence in himself.

a week later.

Wayne Manor.

Bruce was transferred from General Hospital to Wayne Manor.

He was finally able to leave the bed that had trapped him for so many days.

Even now, when I walk or exercise a little, I still feel pain.

Bruce's feet were shaking as he stepped on the ground. After taking two steps, he lost his balance and fell to the ground.

"The best thing you should do now is to stay in bed, Bruce, not get out of bed."

Peter held him with one hand and said with a frown.

"Sir, why are you here?"

Bruce said in surprise.

He hadn't reacted yet, he just felt a gust of wind, and Peter was standing in front of him.

"Your housekeeper called me and said that you refused to lie down in bed and rest, and insisted on getting out of bed."

He rushed to the manor after receiving a call for help from the housekeeper.

I didn't expect to see this scene as soon as I arrived at the gate of the manor.

Peter handed the crutch beside him to Bruce and said, "With such a serious injury like yours, you will need to stay in bed for at least three months to recover."

"I know, but...Gotham needs me."

Bruce leaned on the bed and said to Peter: "If I stay in bed for a long time, the crime in the city will breed more."

"Your personal power can't change much, Bruce."

"But it can also be a signal, a beacon, can't it? You were right last time. The people of Gotham need a beacon. Seeing this beacon, no matter how faint it is, those who have been harmed by criminals will see hope."

Peter was stunned for a moment, then said to the other party: "Bruce, if you regret it, I can give you Compound No. 5 now."

"No, I don't need it, sir." Bruce rejected Peter's proposal in a firm tone, "Powerful things will make people lose their fear and awe."

"But that's not what you said last time, Bruce. You seemed moved last time."

Facing Peter's teasing, Bruce looked a little unnatural and coughed, "No, I wasn't moved. I was just a little confused at that time, but you gave me courage."

Peter looked at the other man's uncomfortable expression and stopped teasing him, "Okay, now lie back on the bed and I'll help you heal."

"Sir, can you heal the wound?"

Bruce asked in surprise.

"a little."

The rune magic that Peter uses includes the "Healing Rune".

The most significant effect of this rune is to treat external trauma, but it does not have much effect on internal bone injuries such as lumbar fractures.

Although it cannot cure back injuries, it can promote blood circulation and relieve the other person's pain.

Bruce lay down on the bed with doubt.

Peter formed a healing rune around Bruce's waist.

Bruce, who was suffering from lumbar pain, immediately felt a refreshing and refreshing feeling spread into his body, and the pain in his body disappeared a lot.

"Sir, what is this?"

Bruce asked, looking up at Peter in shock.

"Runes, a type of rune magic that originated in Northern Europe, are you interested?"

Peter's eyebrows twitched.

If Bruce was interested, he wouldn't mind teaching him the runes.

If he didn't give the other party cheats, he was afraid that Bruce would not be able to deal with the boys in his family in the future.

Especially Clark with thick eyebrows and big eyes.

"Sir, you mean you can teach me?"

Bruce said in surprise.

"Of course, I can accept you as my eldest disciple."

Peter said seriously, "From now on, you will call me Master."

Once a teacher, always a father, kid!

Bruce looked at Peter's serious expression, not sure if he was joking or serious.

He knew that in ancient China, there were master-disciple relationships like that between master and disciple.

"I can also teach you Wing Chun. Have you heard of Thanos who can do Wing Chun?"

"Uh"

Bruce finally realized that Peter was joking with him. He coughed and said to Peter, "I don't know Wing Chun, sir, but I know that it should be the boxing of the Celestial Empire. I once practiced there and learned Shaolin boxing and Bajiquan."

Then he took a deep breath and said to Peter, "I am willing to learn Rune magic from you, sir."

The most important thing is that he can heal himself, which is what he is most interested in.

I no longer have to fight criminals on the streets every night and return to the Batcave covered in wounds. I ask Alfred to help me with my treatment.

Peter felt relieved when he saw that Bruce was willing to learn rune magic from him.

But soon his brows furrowed.

I just don't know what the other party's magical talent is.

"But the most important thing for you now is to recover from your injuries. We will learn Rune later."

Peter pulled his thoughts back to his senses and said to Bruce.

"I understand, sir."

Bruce felt a warm feeling flow through his heart.

He exhaled, experiencing a long-lost feeling with Peter.

That was a feeling he had never had since he lost it in Crime Alley when he was eight years old.

night.

Peter drove back to the farm from Gotham.

Zu is a little unhappy about Peter going to Gotham again.

He has been at odds with Bruce since they were kids. After Bruce became Batman, his father became extremely concerned about him.

Do you want to transform yourself into a superhero and fight criminals in Metropolis?

A-Zu was deep in thought while eating his dinner.

But I don't seem to have the same motivation as Bruce for losing his parents.
Otherwise, recruit the Seven from Arkham and become the boss like your other world self.

The poisonous scarecrow and the powerful crocodile man are pretty good.

A-Zu stroked his chin and began to think about his recruitment plan.

He was thinking about how to form a super seven-member group to fight against Bruce when a familiar song suddenly came from the TV in the living room.

Looking at the TV, A-Zu was stunned.

Clark and Peter, who were eating, were also startled and looked at the TV in shock.

Taylor Swofford, who was previously kidnapped by Loki, is singing a song on TV.

Peter was really surprised to see the other party dressed up as a star from the black robe world.

The sexy uniform covers the key parts, revealing the slender figure.

"Is this Starlight?"

Clark asked Azu in disbelief.

Taylor turned into a star on the stage. I don’t know what props she used, but there was electricity in her hands.

As she danced, dazzling light continued to emit from her hands.

A-Zu nodded dumbly, "She sings better than Starlight."

"but."

A Zu asked Peter: "Dad, you

He originally wanted to talk to Peter, but he saw Peter slowly raised his phone, and it made a "click" sound.
